Doesn't the weetabix and the toast make your BG shoot up?breakfast ideas for type 2 that doesnt shoot their bg up. Lol i bet everyone gets so bored of the bog standard weetabix or wholemeal toast and boiled eggs.
I do like oats, but many of us find they make our BG shoot up fast and long so I avoid them.Oat Pantry have a range of flavours for overnight oats, porridge and baked oats. The overnight oats are really easy to prepare the night before, the only issue is having to order online as not stocked in supermarkets.
Eggs fried with sucuk is halal and at least as tasty as bacon and eggs, one of my favourites!I am also religious so i dont eat bacon, pork or anything type of meat that is not halal.
It's all about the carbs. Carbs raise our blood glucose, so the more carbs, the more of a BG rise you'll see as a rule.going to have a good word with my dietician about weetabix and toast i just cant find anything quick other than eggs as i live with my family it all gets gobbled up quite quick.
Nothing wrong with that, works for me!so yeah sometimes i even skip breakfast and indulge a bit more in lunch instead lol.
Hiheres the bread i usually have https://groceries.asda.com/product/...IdFpxX8HxeK4rBvSMORoCw7EQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds
On the packagaing it says in of which sugars it says only 0.6g of sugar so i dont think it should give much of a spike. I need to have a few words with my endo nurses when they next phone i was to told to keep a low carb diet and keep a limit of 130g max but i eat way less than that anyway. Cheers for all the advice i will deffo take it all in. As a 19 year old its still just so confusing sometimes u think your doing things right and theyre wrong lol.Hi
That bread is 9g of carbs per slice according to the info in the link. I know it says "no added sugar" but that's an old trick - there's plenty of sugars in it already. There are genuine low carb "breads" around which have lower carb content - downside is they are generally expensive, need to be ordered online, and are definitely a substitute rather than the real thing.
It depends what level of carb intake you're aiming for each day. If you're going for (eg) 120-150g then probably one slice of the bread is ok within the overall figure. If you're aiming for 20-30g/day then that's a huge percentage of your daily intake right there. Weetabix is I think around 70% carb, and if you have it with milk, there's carbs in the milk too.
I don't usually have breakfast, just coffee, and generally don't eat until much later in the day.
Sugar is just another form of carbohydrate. A teaspoon of sugar = just over 4gm of carbs, so the 9gm of carbs in a slice of your bread is the equivalent of over 2 teaspoons of sugar.it says only 0.6g of sugar so i dont think it should give much of a spike
The "of which sugars" is misleading and is intended to mislead you. If you read the whole thing it says 9g of carbohydrate per slice. All that 9g of carbohydrate turns into glucose when digested. If you're only counting the "of which sugars" then you will be grossly underestimating your carb intake.On the packagaing it says in of which sugars it says only 0.6g of sugar so i dont think it should give much of a spike.

The dietician I saw knew nothing about remission or the 'recent' research into low carb. She told me to eat more wholewheat products and I ignored her. 3.5 yrs later I've been in remission now for over 3yrs and all the other bloods (kidney, liver, cholesterol, etc) are fine.my dietcian hasnt said anything about weetabix being bad towards the start i had weetabix quite often and didnt see much of a bad effect till recently, same with low carb toast it is starting to become bad even though towards the start i wouldnt see much of a difference. but recently had shocking scores and big rises and as a student dont find much time to make something to eat quick enough. going to have a good word with my dietician about weetabix and toast i just cant find anything quick other than eggs as i live with my family it all gets gobbled up quite quick.
